Nassau County Museum of Art

Beautiful outdoor museum! Lots of beautiful walking areas, gardens, sculptures, you name it! They have a large parking lot for busy days. Really beautiful place to walk around & take in the beauty! We saw lots of people having a picnic, walking around, enjoying the outdoors.

The museum is lovely but the star here is the grounds. This is a hidden gem of a sculpture garden around a one mile loop. It’s one of my favorite places in all seasons. You can park and walk. It doesn’t matter if the museum is open.

I was at this venue for the Twilight Pumpkin on 10/28/2007 & 10/26/2008. The hundreds of jack o'lanterns I remember were perfectly carved. I was here 2 full weeks ago with a group from a local studio for all abilities in my town. I enjoyed viewing the gift shop and most of the artworks in the museum. They inspired me to expand my art. The tour guide was very nice and loved my knowledge of art. I enjoyed looking at the outdoor sculptures despite one in the group invading my space, which was why I didn't fully enjoy the experience. It's beyond the museum's control, but had I been in a group where all participants were behaving themselves, I would have enjoyed it more. I may register for some summer classes and look at opportunities to improve my art at this place.

Quaint little museum. Fantastic value of your local library has free family tickets!

The art seemed to be mostly abstract and modern. The kind you feel your kids should be able to produce. Several gallery rooms downstairs, then several more upstairs. Spacious mansion gives ample space, light, and ceiling height to make it enjoyable.

The outdoor sculpture garden was even better. The art was just as hallucinogenic post modern, but the grounds are fantastic to walk around. Grab a map before leaving the museum building (left of the door) and check off the exhibits as you walk around.
